Pros

Everyone is always so friendly and very helpful. Paid vacation comes after only 6 months. Easy to get promoted within. I love how driven everyone is and how Roy Whitehead, the CEO, is always improving the company.

Cons

Does not pay as well as some other big banks. There are limits to how high you can get promoted.

Pros

Primarily remote work. Decent PTO after the 4th year.

Cons

Limited staffing and limiting overtime opportunities until the bitter end of potentially missing deadlines, which you are guilted into working. 2% "raise" every January and ZERO merit raises. Gutted profit sharing and profitability bonuses over time. Most recent bonus, which is tied to net profit after dividends, was given a result when the scale was never published. All previous bonuses had a floor-to-ceiling profit scale that showed the targets months in advance of the end of the bonus period.
